Finding the sparsest solution $\alpha$ for an under-determined linear system of equations $D\alpha=s$ is of interest in many applications. This problem is known to be NP-hard. Recent work studied conditions on the support size of $\alpha$…

We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…

We present the framework of delta-complete analysis for bounded reachability problems of general hybrid systems. We perform bounded reachability checking through solving delta-decision problems over the reals. The techniques take into…

The problem of Syndrome Decoding was proven to be NP-complete in 1978 and, since then, quite a few cryptographic applications have had their security rely on the (provable) difficulty of solving some instances of it. However, in most cases,…

In this survey paper, we outline the proofs of the rigidity results for simple, thick, hyperbolic P-manifolds found in our three earlier papers math.GR/0506518, math.GT/0410476, and math.GR/0409586. We discuss how the arguments change in…

Myasnikov et al. have introduced the knapsack problem for arbitrary finitely generated groups. In previous work, the authors proved that for each graph group, the knapsack problem can be solved in $\mathsf{NP}$. Here, we determine the exact…

Edge-matching problems, also called edge matching puzzles, are abstractions of placement problems with neighborhood conditions. Pieces with colored edges have to be placed on a board such that adjacent edges have the same color. The problem…

Recent research has indicated that the Standard Model (SM), while historically highly effective, is found to be insufficient due to its prediction of zero mass for neutrinos. With the exception of a few, the majority of the parameters…

We prove that Hamiltonian Path and Hamiltonian Cycle are NP-hard on graphs of linear mim-width 26, even when a linear order of the input graph with mim-width 26 is provided together with input. This fills a gap left by a broken proof of the…

The aim in packing problems is to decide if a given set of pieces can be placed inside a given container. A packing problem is defined by the types of pieces and containers to be handled, and the motions that are allowed to move the pieces.…

Petri net synthesis consists in deciding for a given transition system $A$ whether there exists a Petri net $N$ whose reachability graph is isomorphic to $A$. Several works examined the synthesis of Petri net subclasses that restrict, for…
